Tips from the Community
Located on a plain near the village of Villalonso (population approximately 75), 11 km from Toro and about 47 km from Zamora. It is a typical square-plan castle-palace with a high moat (now filled in), corner towers, crenellated walls, and a keep crowned by a machicolation.

The current castle was built in the 15th century on the site of an earlier 13th-century fortification, which belonged to the Order of Alcántara. In 1470, Juan de Ulloa and his wife, María de Sarmiento, rebuilt it in a palatial style, placing their coats of arms above the entrance. Juan supported the Portuguese cause in the War of the Castilian Succession and died defending the castle in 1476; his widow then defended it for a time.

High on a hill near Urueña stands this Romanesque hermitage of Mozarabic origin, one of the most unique in Castile and León. What few know is that beneath its floor were found Visigothic pottery fragments and a small well used to collect rainwater, considered blessed. Local shepherds said that this water cured eyesight if applied at dawn. Today, the well remains, covered by a slab, and the hermitage continues to hold its air of mystery among the golden stones of the moor.

The Hermitage of Our Lady of the Annunciation is located in Urueña, in the province of Valladolid and is an outstanding example of Romanesque-Lombard art in Spain. Built in the 12th century by order of the Infanta Sancha Raimúndez, on the site of a previous Mozarabic church. It is the only complete example of Romanesque-Lombard art in Castile and León. The hermitage is located in a small valley a few kilometres from the town of Urueña, offering a magnificent view of the wall that surrounds the town.

The Castle of the Comuneros rises majestically above the Torozos Mountains, visible from several kilometers around. Located in Torrelobatón, in the province of Valladolid, this castle has become the symbol of the town and is one of the best preserved in Castilla y León. It was declared Historical Heritage in 1949. This imposing castle, a witness to history and struggle, remains a fascinating attraction for visitors. If you ever have the opportunity, I recommend exploring its walls and discovering the secrets it keeps in its centuries-old stone. 🏰
